Warming-Up Roleplay Exercises

The one-sentence "definition" that should be in italics.

This pattern is a still a stub.

Examples

Live Action Roleplaying Games in the Nordic LARP tradition have developed Warming-Up Roleplay Exercises such as Kluddermor and Flamingos and Penguins (see Workshop Håndbogen<ref name="Munthe-Kaas"/> for descriptions of these) that can help players become more energized or overcome social inhibitions before LARP begins.

While not only being focused on helping players warm-up, Slow take-off<ref name="slow"/> techniques provide various way to slowly shift from introducing the premise for a LARP or doing the last content additions to them to actually playing them.

Using the pattern

The Danish book Workshop Håndbogen<ref name="Munthe-Kaas"/> provides many specific examples of Warming-Up Roleplay Exercises.
